The Esqulant Leisure Group is expanding once again, with two exciting new venues set to open in Applecross later in 2025. Located at the base of the prestigious Riviera Residences, The Heart and Bar Olé Applecross will bring a fresh wave of dining and social experiences to the area, complete with direct views over the Swan River and one of the suburb’s last remaining alfresco spaces. Designed to cater to both the residents of Riviera and the surrounding neighbourhoods, these venues are set to become new local favourites.
Bar Olé Applecross will continue the tradition of authentic Spanish dining, offering vibrant tapas dishes, signature sangria, Spanish beers, and a selection of wines to match. Building on the success of Bar Olé’s other venue in Iluka, the Applecross location will deliver the same warm, lively atmosphere that has made it a standout destination, now with the added backdrop of the river.
Alongside it, The Heart will provide a more relaxed, pub-focused offering, perfect for casual catch-ups and family meals. Guests can expect a menu filled with plenty of pub classics, alongside modern favourites and drinks designed to suit every occasion. With its inviting design and prime riverside location, The Heart is set to be a new go-to spot for locals looking for a laid-back yet stylish place to gather.
Together, these two venues mark another milestone for the Esqulant Leisure Group, strengthening its presence across Perth and delivering experiences that combine quality dining with community connection. As the opening approaches in late 2025, anticipation is already building for what promises to be two standout additions to Applecross’s social and dining scene.
